Chapter four the difficult questions
This chapter deals with questions that are sensitive and can be uncomfortable to answer. Many of these ques¬tions may have a negative undertone and seem to be asking,“Tell us something that is wrong with you.” The inter¬viewer is looking to see if past problems are going to follow you to this job. Many of the questions ask for examples of your past behavior—“behavioral questions.”You will notice in the exam¬ple answers that part of the perfect phrase you use takes the focus off of the negative factors and instead accentuates the positive qualities that you bring to the job.By thinking about and preparing for this type of question before the interview, you will feel more confident about the cir¬cumstances of negative situations. You will be able to look the interviewer in the eye as you answer with confidence, talking about those times that you would just as soon forget.
